Samsung Exynos 2100 : What You Need To Know!
The Exynos 2100 is Samsung’s first 5G-integrated flagship mobile platform, fabricated on the latest 5 nm EUV (Extreme Ultra-Violet) process node.
The finer 5 nm process lets it deliver up to 20% lower power consumption, or 10% better performance, than its older 7 nm predecessor.
New Tri-Cluster CPU Architecture
The Samsung Exynos 2100 uses a new tri-cluster CPU architecture, featuring :
- a new powerful Arm Cortex-X1 core running at up to 2.9 GHz,
- three sustained performance Arm Cortex-A78 cores running at up to 2.8 GHz, and
- four power-efficient Arm Cortex-A55 cores running at up to 2.2 GHz
Faster Graphics
The Samsung Exynos 2100 comes with the Arm Mali-G78 GPU, which delivers 40% better performance for gaming, and AR/VR or MR (mixed reality).
Faster AI
It also comes with a new triple-core NPU, which can process up to 26 trillion operations per second (TOPS), with twice the power efficiency of the previous generation.
Faster Memory
The Exynos 2100 supports LPDDR5 memory, with a peak memory speed of 51.2 GB/s.
In addition, Samsung says it has an improved cache and a stronger scheduler for better memory performance and utilisation.
Advanced Image Signal Processor
Its advanced image signal processor (ISP) supports camera resolutions of up to 200 megapixels (MP), and can connect up to six individual sensors.
With a multi-camera and frame processor (MCFP), this ISP can combine feeds from up to four cameras to :
- improve zoom performance
- enhance image quality for ultra-wide shots
- reduce hand shake
With AI acceleration, the ISP can also recognise scenes, faces and objects, automatically adjusting the camera settings for optimal image quality and detail.
Integrated 5G Multi-Mode Modem
The Exynos 2100 has an integrated 5G multi-mode modem that supports :
- 5G : Sub-6 GHz and millimetre wave spectrums
- 4G LTE with 1024 QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) support
- 3G WCDMA
- 2G GSM / CDMA
This modem can download data at up to 5.1 Gbps (sub-6GHz), and 7.35 Gbps (mmWave) with 5G networks; and up to 3 Gbps in 4G networks with 1024 QAM.
